ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Murrina Millefiori, translating to "a thousand flowers," is a centuries-old Venetian glass technique that involves arranging slices of colored glass canes into floral patterns and then fusing them together. The Millefiori method dates back to ancient Roman and Egyptian times but was perfected in Venice, specifically on the island of Murano, famous for its glasswork. This technique requires exceptional skill and precision to create the distinctive, kaleidoscopic patterns. The lamp's design, rooted in this Millefiori tradition, is both a nod to Venetian glass history and a beautiful, modern interpretation of this timeless craft.
